Description

Counter-Strike: Global Offensive is a 2012 multiplayer first-person shooter developed by Valve and Hidden Path Entertainment. It is the fourth game in the Counter-Strike series. It is one of the biggest eSports title out there. In this project we scrape and work on a dataset of all CSGO Athletes.

The entire flow of the project includes:

  • Scrape the Dataset from this Website
  • Perform Feature Engineering to create insightful columns
  • Perform Exploratory Data Analysis to create insights and meaningful dashboards
